Normally I get notifications by email when some one blogs or makes a reply. I had trouble getting on the site late last night and have had no e mails so assumed site had gone down.

I have just "tuned in" and find we have lost two good friends and bloggers.

I refer to Bertty and Muffin.

I got to know Bertty quite well and we messaged each other regularly.Now his account is not accessable so I can't find out what happened.I knew he was an alcoholic and was trying to help him. I too am a recovering alcoholic or "Drunk" as some people call us.

I do not know what upset him.......perhaps he was just feeling low.

Does any one know if he can re-instate his account or not.

Same with "Muffin" I read all her blogs.The trouble there is that although I had the greatest of respect for her and also a lot of empathy I could not answer her blogs because I just have no knowledge of her particular illness.Perhaps I should have tried harder?

I am sorry that they have both gone.

Now tomorrow,starting from 1pm I shall be at the hospital.I am really looking forward to it NOT.I have to have an electro cardiogram.....An echo gram ...A tread mill test and a blood test all in the one afternoon. Then I have to wait for the results and see a cardiologist so it could be fun.
